We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Job ID etc: we drop. Agency: Department of Corrections - Parole Services Location: Aberdeen Salary: $16.68 to $20.00 per hour, depending on experience Pay Grade: GD Closing Date: 10/07/2026 (maybe not needed; it's metadata; we can drop or put in short p.)

A certificate is not necessary to be considered. The State of South Dakota does not sponsor work visas for new or existing employees. All persons hired will be required to verify identity and eligibility to work in the United States and complete an Employment Eligibility Verification, Form I-9. The State of South Dakota as an employer will be using E-Verify to complete employment eligibility verification upon hire.

You can view our benefits information here . This position is a member of Class A retirement under SDRS. Must apply online: ... (application instructions to drop). Also EEO boilerplate to drop. We need to remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Thus we drop: "Must apply online: ...", "You must apply online, emailed resumes or submissions will not be accepted.", contact info, EEO line. We keep substantive info: agency, location, salary, pay grade maybe as metadata but not heading. Could put in a short p. We need sections: About the role (maybe description), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (knowledge and abilities), Qualifications? Could combine knowledge and abilities as Requirements. Skills maybe separate? Benefits: we have benefits info: $0 premium employee health insurance option plus eleven paid holidays, generous vacation and sick leave accrual, dental, vision, and other insurance options, and retirement benefits. Also Class A retirement under SDRS. So we can have Benefits section. Pay: we have salary range $16.68 to $20.00 per hour, depending on experience. Also Pay Grade: GD. So we can have Pay section. Schedule: we have full-time position. So Schedule section. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience" etc. We have actual content. We need to use

for section headings. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We need to avoid repeating job title as heading (not present). Do not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's craft:

  Agency: Department of Corrections - Parole Services

  Location: Aberdeen

  Pay Grade: GD

  Closing Date: 10/07/2026

  But maybe we should not include metadata as separate sections; we can embed in a short p. But the instruction: "do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

  or drop it." So we can include agency, location, pay grade, closing date in a short p. Now sections:

  About the role

  This position provides clerical/secretarial support for the Parole Agents and Juvenile Corrections Agents assigned to the Aberdeen office.

  Responsibilities

  • Composing and typing correspondence
  • Establishing and maintaining filing and data systems
  • Gathering and providing information

  Requirements

  We need to list knowledge and abilities. Could split into Knowledge and Ability but we can combine as requirements list. We have Knowledge Of The Ideal Candidate Will Have: business English including grammar, spelling, and punctuation; modern office equipment, practices, and procedures; basic bookkeeping; computer software applications; department rules, procedures, and functions. Ability To: type accurately; gather, compare, and summarize data from a variety of sources; operate a variety of office equipment; communicate information clearly and concisely; read and comprehend materials; establish and maintain effective working relationships with other employees and the general public; proof and edit solutions to arithmetic problems involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and percentages; transcribe material from machine dictation; formulate logical and reasonable conclusions from available information; understand Department of Corrections programs; work independently. We can make two lists: Knowledge and Abilities, but the instruction says use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can have separate headings? Not required but we could have

    Knowledge

    and

    Abilities

    but they said only use headings for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should not create extra headings beyond those. So we should put all requirements under a single Requirements section, maybe split into two
    lists with headings inside? But we cannot add extra headings; we could use

    to label Knowledge and Abilities then lists. We need to preserve all detail. So we can do:

    Requirements

    Knowledge:

    • business English including grammar, spelling, and punctuation
    • modern office equipment, practices, and procedures
    • basic bookkeeping
    • computer software applications
    • department rules, procedures, and functions

    Abilities:

    • type accurately
    • gather, compare, and summarize data from a variety of sources
    • operate a variety of office equipment
    • communicate information clearly and concisely
    • read and comprehend materials
    • establish and maintain effective working relationships with other employees and the general public
    • proof and edit solutions to arithmetic problems involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and percentages
    • transcribe material from machine dictation
    • formulate logical and reasonable conclusions from available information
    • understand Department of Corrections programs
    • work independently
    That seems fine. Now Benefits section:

    Benefits

    • $0 premium employee health insurance option
    • eleven paid holidays
    • generous vacation and sick leave accrual
    • dental, vision, and other insurance options
    • retirement benefits (Class A retirement under SDRS)
    Pay section:

    Pay

    $16.68 to $20.00 per hour, depending on experience

    Pay Grade: GD

    Schedule section:

    Schedule

    Full-time position

    We might also include About the role as above. We need to ensure we don't include any boilerplate like "NCRC: If you possess..." etc. That's additional requirements but we dropped application instructions. However the Additional Requirements includes some substantive info like Veterans’ Preference, background investigation, drug screening, NCRC, work visa, I-9, E-Verify. Are those considered boilerplate? They are not exactly boilerplate; they are specific requirements. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The Additional Requirements includes legal stuff like background investigation, drug screening, I-9, E-Verify, work visa, Veterans’ Preference. Those are not exactly boilerplate but could be considered legal. However they are substantive requirements for the job. The instruction says to remove legal boilerplate. But "background investigation", "drug screening", "I-9", "E-Verify" are typical legal requirements. Might be considered boilerplate. However they are specific to this posting. The instruction says remove legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. It's ambiguous. I'd lean to keep them as they are part of the job requirements (like eligibility). But they might be considered boilerplate. The instruction says "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate". So we should remove legal boilerplate. That includes background investigation, drug screening, I-9, E-Verify, work visa, Veterans’ Preference? Veterans’ Preference is a specific program, maybe not boilerplate. But it's still a legal preference. I'd remove those lines to be safe. Thus we keep only the substantive parts: "To be considered, please attach your resume." is application instruction -> drop. "This position is eligible for Veterans’ Preference per ARSD 55:10:02:08." maybe keep? It's a specific eligibility but could be considered legal. I'd drop it as legal. "Successful applicant(s) will be required to undergo a background investigation." drop legal. "An arrest/conviction record will not necessarily bar employment." drop legal. "Offers of employment are conditional upon successful completion of a drug screening." drop legal. "NCRC: If you possess a National Career Readiness Certificate, please submit the certificate with your application." that's about certificate; could be considered a qualification/requirement. Keep? It's about submitting certificate; it's not exactly a requirement but optional. Could keep as part of Requirements? Might be considered additional requirement. I'd keep mention of NCRC as optional qualification. "For more information on how to acquire a National Career Readiness Certificate contact a South Dakota Department of Labor and Regulation Job Service Office." that's info, could keep. "A certificate is not necessary to be considered." keep. "The State of South Dakota does not sponsor work visas for new or existing employees." legal, drop. "All persons hired will be required to verify identity and eligibility to work in the United States and complete an Employment Eligibility Verification, Form I-9." legal drop. "The State of South
